LAHORE: The second victim of Lahore lynching incident has been identified as Babar Noman, a garment worker who had come from Sargodha in search of employment at a factory, DawnNews reported on Tuesday.

The family members of Noman have come forward to claim the dead body of the deceased. However, police officials are persistent that the identity of the deceased can only be confirmed after the reports of DNA tests.

Meanwhile, police buried the dead body of the victim on Tuesday evening which will now be exhumed on court’s order following the application from victim’s family.

The first victim was identified when Muhammad Saleem filed an application at Lahore's Nishtar Colony police station on Monday, saying that one of the two men lynched by an angry mob following the twin church blasts on Sunday was his brother Naeem.

Muhammad Saleem said his brother worked as a glass cutter and had nothing to do with church bombings in Lahore.
